the clinton convention was a good moment. if you look at those things, even at the technical nominating thing back to the end of the primary. i kind of like the timing of that, the big moment. when he talked about what is the rhythm, you have got the vice presidential nominations and the convention and the debate. to have that big moment in the fall when people a attention makes a lot more sense and to do it in june when people are not ready for it. >> i think it is an awkward part of the campaign between the time mary and the convention. -- the time mary -- primary and the convention. it will inevitably become earlier. >> you want to shrink that process? >> i'm efficient the time between the primary and the nomination. -- i want to shrink the time between the primary and the nomination. the general election is four months and that is a good thing. >> i think about how we use the convention. we try to make it more than just the people in the room. it is about putting in a competitive state where we have a voter registration.
